nm000280 NEMAR-native dataset

A steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP)-based BCI dataset in children and adolescents

This dataset contains EEG recordings from 47 neurotypical children and adolescents (ages 5-18) collected during a two-stage steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP)-based brain-computer interface (BCI) session, comprising a stimulus personalization pipeline and an online 4-target SSVEP game. Data were recorded with a 16-channel g.tec g.GAMMAsys gel-based EEG system at 256 Hz. The dataset was released by the BCI4Kids program to support the development of signal-processing methods tailored to pediatric SSVEP-BCI applications, and was converted to BIDS format from an original raw XDF Zenodo release.

Download this dataset

Pick a method. Large datasets skip the zip and use the streaming methods below — all resumable. Full download guide →

  1. NEMAR CLI recommended

    Pulls the pinned version + annexed data and resumes cleanly. Install nemar-cli → 

    nemar dataset download nm000280
  2. DataLad

    Clone the dataset repo and fetch file content on demand. Docs → 

    datalad clone https://github.com/nemarDatasets/nm000280 nm000280
cd nm000280 && datalad get .
  3. git-annex

    Plain git + git-annex against the dataset repo. Docs → 

    git clone https://github.com/nemarDatasets/nm000280 nm000280
cd nm000280 && git annex get .
  4. Direct files (wget / curl / rclone)

    Every file with a stable, range-resumable URL from the manifest. Needs curl, jq, wget (or rclone/aria2c). Docs → 

    curl -s https://data.nemar.org/nm000280/latest/manifest.json | jq -r '.[].bytes_url' > urls.txt
wget -xc -i urls.txt

Compute on this dataset

Two routes today, with a third (in-browser one-click submission) landing soon.

  1. NeuroScience Gateway (NSG) portal.

    NSG runs EEGLAB / Brainstorm / MNE pipelines on supercomputing time donated by SDSC. Create an account, point a job at this dataset's S3 prefix (s3://nemar/nm000280), and submit.
    nsgportal.org →

  2. Local processing with nemar-cli.

    Pull the dataset to your machine and run any toolbox locally. Honors the published version pinning. 

    npm install -g nemar-cli
nemar dataset clone nm000280
cd nm000280 && nemar dataset get
  3. Just the files.

    rclone, aria2c, or any HTTPS client works against data.nemar.org/nm000280/ — the manifest carries presigned S3 URLs.

Direct compute access is coming soon. One-click NSG submission from this page is scoped for a follow-up phase. Tracked on nemarOrg/website#6.
